LCWK2 shows the 15 leading causes of death in 10-year age groups, by race (all races, white, black, American Indian, and Asian or Pacific Islander), and sex. The methodology for ranking causes is available in Deaths: Leading causes [PDF 4 MB]. Starting in data year 2015, this worktable is supplemental and will be gradually phased out. It is being replaced by a worktable showing the leading causes of death by combined race and Hispanic origin available from LCWK2_HR.
